A pair of Sunlight Nether Fishes and six pairs of Moonlight Nether Fishes.
It was indeed a huge amount of Nether Fishes, and the Poseidon family could even breed and cultivate them. It was something that Cyril had accidentally leaked to Tang Ling.
Although Tang Ling did not know what method they used, he could imagine that if the Poseidon family could really breed all the Nether Fishes, the resources that Tang Ling had given them would be considered as a form of grace.
If the other factions got their hands on the school of Nether Fishes, how could the Poseidon family get their hands on so many of them?
Compared to what Cyril had gotten, the Poseidon family's contribution was nothing.
With that in mind, Tang Ling pouted. He knew that he was still too weak even though Cyril was a decent partner.
"Hmm." Tang Ling suddenly stood up when he realized that he was still too weak.
"Are you going to cultivate again?" Higan was a little surprised.
"No, I'm going to the secret cabin to have a look," Tang Ling said to Higan with his hands behind his head.
It seemed like Tang Ling had obtained an astonishing amount of resources. The huge vicious beast carcass that was as big as a deserted island belonged to him.
As a matter of fact, he could not even touch the resources.
Firstly, Tang Ling had to fulfill his promise to the owner of the deserted island.
Secondly, he had to rely on the deserted island to control the school of Starlight Nether Fishes.
In other words, it would take some time before he could use the resources, at least until the voyage ended.
With the help of the Poseidon family, Tang Ling was not worried about the distribution of the fishes, but the deal with the owner of the deserted island was crucial and he had to complete it before the voyage ended.
With that in mind, Tang Ling was worried. He was actually not a hundred percent confident in his idea, so it was normal for him to ask for a look.
Without a doubt, Tang Ling had already met up with his friends.
The Harvest was still parked within the Tommy safety line, so it should have departed not long ago to meet up with Tang Ling and the others.
Therefore, Tang Ling and his crew were on the aircraft carrier that he had gotten from transit station 119.
Of course, it was a secret! With the protection from the Poseidon family and some other important figures who had struck a deal with Tang Ling, it was not difficult for Tang Ling and the others to temporarily conceal their whereabouts and the secret of the aircraft carrier.
With that in mind, he walked down from the deck and into the cabin of the aircraft carrier that he named Base.
He headed straight to the control room.
In the control room, Lu Xiaohua and Wu Zi were sitting.
Back then, when Tang Ling arranged for them to go missing, he actually sent the felt hat and Lu Xiaohua to transit station No. 119 to manage it together with the Five Sons.
There was no need to mention Lu Xiaohua. She was a girl with mechanical talent, so Tang Ling needed her help to modify the aircraft carrier.
As for Felt Hat, Tang Ling had no idea how talented he was, but after some observation, he realized that Felt Hat was a reliable and talented leader.
In a situation where it was impossible to choose a partner on the Harvest, these two people were undoubtedly the best choice to enter Transit Station 119.
As a matter of fact, Tang Ling's choice was not wrong.
Last time, it was the three of them who led the group of people who delivered a huge amount of resources to Tang Ling for the black market.
He did not make any mistakes along the way, nor did he leave behind any loopholes.
However, what Tang Ling traded back then was only a portion of the resources from Transit Station 119. The Blood Scissors Brothers had been accumulating for many years, so their assets were not limited to just a few.
As for the other portion, Tang Ling handed it over to the three of them to trade for the modification of the aircraft carrier.
With her mechanical talent, Lu Xiaohua's modification of the aircraft carrier was rather successful, but it was not something that could be done overnight. Until now, the whole thing was still in progress and the capital requirement was huge.
Tang Ling was not worried about that since he had a lot of gifts from the Sea God and the Tear of the Sea God.
Even though he could not use the resources on the deserted island, he could still take some of the gifts from the Sea God and even the Tear of the Sea God.
"What's the situation now?" Tang Ling asked the moment he stepped into the control room.
Five Zi sat in front of the monitor with a serious expression. Felt Hat, on the other hand, looked relaxed. He held a bottle of strong alcohol that could warm him up. His hat was tilted and his legs were placed on the control panel. He didn't seem to care much.
When he saw Tang Ling, he smiled at him and straightened his body.
"It's still the same." Felt Hat took a sip of the liquor as he spoke and pulled his hat up. He had been staying in the cabin for the past two days, so he felt a little cold.
"It seems like it's hard to erase its will." Wu Zi was the one who answered. He looked worried and was careful with his words. He was not as casual and natural as Felt Hat.
Tang Ling was not concerned about it though. After all, Wu Zi met Tang Ling and escaped from the lowest rung of society. As a young genius, Felt Hat was valued by many factions.
Wu Zi still needed some time to adapt to his new identity and rebuild his mentality. It was something that no one could help him with.
"Let me have a look." Tang Ling walked over and the man naturally allowed him to sit down before he stood behind him.
In front of him was a huge screen. Through Lu Xiaohua's modification, the control room could monitor every corner of the aircraft carrier without leaving any blind spots.
However, since everyone on the aircraft carrier was on his side, there was no need to activate the surveillance. As a matter of fact, only the secret cabin could be monitored 24 hours a day in the control room.
The so-called secret cabin was actually a huge cabin that Lu Xiaohua modified according to Tang Ling's wishes.
In this cabin, there was only a large pool, and the walls of the cabin were all made of S-grade alloy.
On the periphery of the cabin, there were two small Sector Protection Devices. These were the 'strongest weapons' that the aircraft carrier originally had, and now they were being used here.
The Sunlight Hades Fish was a Class 3 vicious beast after all. Regardless of the cost, the Harvest might be able to kill the Sunlight Hades Fish if all the forces on the Harvest were gathered.
However, controlling it was a fool's dream.
Therefore, Tang Ling purposely built this secret cabin for it. The Sunlight Hades Fish that everyone saw in the recording was the Sunlight Hades Fish in the secret cabin.
The pool on the screen was very quiet. From the surface of the pool, no one could tell that there was a Class 3 vicious beast hiding in the pool.
Tang Ling adjusted the angle and used the HD camera underwater to see the Sunlight Hades Fish at the bottom of the pool quietly.
"Boss, pay attention to its eyes," Felt Hat reminded Tang Ling from behind.
Tang Ling glanced at the Sunlight Hades Fish in the pool. As expected, its eyes were still gleaming fiercely. It seemed to be quiet with a hint of ruthlessness.
Tang Ling slightly frowned. He lit a cigarette and did not say anything.
He was actually running out of time. Based on the time that had passed, the Death Mist Zone would reach this part of the sea in less than two days.
By then, all the crew members on the Harvest would enter the Death Mist Zone together.
Even if Tang Ling trusted Felt Hat, Lu Xiaohua, and the Five Sons to control the aircraft carrier, if anything were to happen, the three of them would not be able to control the situation and the modification of the aircraft carrier would not be completed.
The biggest uncertain factor was the Sunlight Nether Fish. Tang Ling was not confident that the S-grade metal walls and the mini Sector Protection Machine would be enough to secure the place.
Besides, Tang Ling had his own thoughts and plans about entering the Death Mist Zone that were related to the aircraft carrier.
"Boss, a Class 3 vicious beast already has basic intelligence. Even the wild beasts from the old civilization have stronger wills than humans, let alone vicious beasts. You want to build on the foundation of not hurting it, and even nurturing it to become stronger. It's not something that can be done in a short period of time. "Lu Xiaohua had been busy in the control room, making adjustments. With her talent in mechanics and her fanatical interest in machines, she would never be disturbed by anything during her work. Even if Tang Ling came, she would not be bothered at all.
Fortunately, Tang Ling was used to Lu Xiaohua's attitude and admired her for it.
Anyone who could do anything to the extreme was considered amazing, was it not?
Therefore, when Lu Xiaohua voiced out his opinion, Tang Ling was shocked.
"I know, but …" Tang Ling spat out a mouthful of smoke. He wanted to say something, but Five Sons stuttered.
"B-Boss! If you trust me, I think it's doable. If Sister Xiao Hua is also here and can cooperate with me, "Wu Zi suddenly spoke at this moment.
"Are you confident?" Tang Ling retorted with a question.
Five Sons hesitated for a while before he nodded heavily at Tang Ling.
"Fine. I trust you! What do you need me to do? Just tell me. "After getting Five Sons' affirmation, Tang Ling agreed to Five Sons' request.
**
There were only two more days of peace left.
Tang Ling stood at the edge of the deck in a special diving suit. He looked at the dark clouds further away and took a deep breath.
The weather at sea was ever-changing, let alone the early summer of May. The sky was clear a moment ago and the sun was scorching hot, but now, the sky was covered in dark clouds and it seemed like a storm was coming.
After accomplishing such a huge feat, obtaining a lot of resources, breaking free from the pursuit, networking, and isolating the Stardust Council …
He even made use of the Starlight Nether Fish to become the real boss of this voyage.
Tang Ling did not feel relaxed or satisfied at all. Instead, he felt even heavier.
As a matter of fact, if it were not for the anxiety in his heart, Tang Ling would have shared the Starlight Nether Fish with the other teenagers without asking for anything.
It was not because of Tang Ling's generosity or kindness, but because he only needed a certain amount of Starlight Nether Fish and it would only be useful when he advanced into a Purple Moon Warrior.
What was the point of having too much of it?
Compared to money, the favor and gratitude of these geniuses with limitless futures seemed to be more valuable.
Tang Ling was not a stingy person during crucial times. Quite the contrary, he was a teenager with a long-term vision and an extraordinary view of the big picture.
However, Tang Ling did not do it!
Somehow, whenever Tang Ling thought about the Devil Mist, his heart would uncontrollably feel uneasy.
The anxiety was not obvious at first, and Tang Ling was in the eye of the storm, so the anxiety was usually suppressed by other things.
As time went by, the anxiety became more obvious.
Especially recently, Tang Ling had temporarily solved the problem and ushered in a great victory. The anxiety in his heart grew stronger, to the point that he did not even have to think about the Devil Mist or the Death Mist. The anxiety started to envelop him.
It was obvious that it was getting clearer with every passing second.
Swoosh! Tang Ling zipped up his special diving suit and took another deep breath. If he had to describe the uneasiness in his heart, what would it be? It felt like … like a huge dark cloud gathering in the distance …
Therefore, Tang Ling chose to use the resources from the Starlight Nether Fish and asked the teenagers to fulfill the first or second condition in order to get the resources.
According to Tang Ling's expectations, the teenagers would not choose the first condition. After all, all the teenagers were out at sea, so they did not have the time to be the supervisors.
On top of that, even though they were the core disciples of their families, they did not have the right to speak and get involved in the conflict between factions.
Lastly, the resources that they wanted were not that precious either. All they needed was the Starlight Nether Fish.
According to the law of distribution, the less precious the resources, the less they would have to do.
Therefore, the teenagers would choose the second condition because the requirement was not that strict. They could even wave flags and cheer for Tang Ling and provide him with information.
However, the hidden trap in the second condition was that they had to stand on Tang Ling's side. They were not allowed to hurt Tang Ling and even had to protect him.
As a matter of fact, Tang Ling was using the second condition to gather all the teenagers at his side.
Why? It was because of the anxiety that the Death Mist Zone brought to Tang Ling!
If all the teenagers acted on their own and fought each other in such a dangerous place, Tang Ling dared not imagine what would happen. No one would be able to escape from the Death Mist Zone unscathed.
Since that was the case, he might as well gather everyone at his side! Rather than trusting others, he might as well trust himself.
With that in mind, Tang Ling started to warm up before diving.
There were only two more days of peace left! He had to hurry up and do something.
However, Tang Ling did not tell his friends about the danger because he could not tell where it came from. It would be useless even if he told them.
According to Tang Ling's personality, doing something practical was the most important thing at the moment.
Although the anxiety was very strong, Tang Ling did not feel like it was out of his control.
If it got worse, he would warn the others.
If it got really dangerous, he might as well give up. Nothing was more important than his life.
With that in mind, Tang Ling put the oxygen generator into his mouth. The scene that happened earlier uncontrollably appeared in his mind again.
Han Xing was swinging the specially-made practice sword in the cabin.
Bei Qi was kicking the metal poles and practicing his leg techniques.
West Wind was practicing her punching bag. Xiao Hua had specially made it for her. It was sewn from the skin of a Class 2 vicious beast and it was filled with Grade A alloy sand.
Nan Yu was blindfolded and practicing his body techniques.
Dong Yang was practicing his marksmanship on the same specially-made metal targets over and over again.
As for Ro Li, he was still trying to perfect his control over the puppets.
Fatty was immersed in the kitchen. He was busy and even humming a tune.
Higan seemed to be a lot more relaxed, but she was also reading seriously.
Everyone was working hard, but their hard work made them feel like time was passing peacefully.
Because of Tang Ling's victory, everyone was filled with confidence for this voyage. Their trust in Tang Ling had reached a new height.
"Then …" Tang Ling looked at the dark surface of the sea because there was no longer any sunlight. He silently shouldered the responsibility of this trust.
If it was possible, he would still enter the Death Mist Zone and try his best to find the Seven Stamen Lotus.
Even in the worst case scenario, his companions had to retreat unscathed. Not a single one could be left behind!
Splash! Tang Ling finally jumped into the water and started to dive quickly.
**
Even though it was not the deep sea.
At this depth, the surface of the sea was pitch-black. Even in the Purple Moon era where people's bodies were a lot stronger and Tang Ling's physique was one of the best, it was still impossible for him to dive this deep.
Therefore, Tang Ling purposely extorted this specially-made diving suit from Cyril just so he could dive this deep.
In order to avoid being discovered by the nether fish, he had to dive at least 600 meters below the surface of the sea in order to conceal himself well.
Fortunately, the diving suit that was covered in high-tech patterns was very useful. Tang Ling had dived to a depth of 693 meters, but he did not feel pressured at all.
The specially-made goggles came with night vision, which was a lot more advanced than the infrared night vision goggles of the old civilization.
In short, in the dark sea, Tang Ling saw everything clearly through the goggles. It was no different from seeing things under the sun.
The bottom of the sea was not flat. If one dived deeper, one would realize that the bottom of the sea was filled with the same terrain as the land.
There were mountains, valleys, and rifts.
At the edge of one of the rifts at the bottom of the sea, a large number of Starlight Nether Fish were swimming. Of course, there were Sunlight Nether Fish and Moonlight Nether Fish among them.
Without a doubt, the nether fish were swimming around a deserted island at the edge of the rifts. It looked very strange!
Tang Ling glanced at the deserted island and swam towards it without a second thought. The closer he got to the island, the clearer he could see that there was a mystical energy shrouding the deserted island. It protected every single blade of grass and tree on the island, preventing them from being washed away by the currents of the deep sea.
Tang Ling was very satisfied with the scene because he treated every speck of dust on the island as his property, so he would not waste a single speck of it.
As for the school of fish, Tang Ling was not worried that they would attack him because they were controlled by the owner of the deserted island.
